Abstract

The prepn./distribution unit consists of a container (1) with a hopper (2) to receive the meal used for the feed, a stirrer and mixer (8) and an outlet (12) at the bottom. Water for mixing with the meal or cleaning the container is fed in through inlets at the top so that it drops onto the surface of an inverted dispersal cone (9) on a driven vertical shaft (5) which has an auger (6) at the top to push the flour down into the container and prevent liquids from rising, and a turbine (11) at the bottom for ejecting the prepd. feed through the outlet (12). In a variant of the design, the unit has an input auger at the top between an outside hopper and the cone. The auger is turned by the drive shaft through bevel gears.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de préparation et de distribution à des auges d'aliments semi-liquides pour le bétail. The present invention relates to a device for preparing and distributing semi-liquid feeds for livestock to troughs.

De tels dispositifs sont connus à ce jour, ceux-ci comportent une cuve dans laquelle est assuré le mélange de farine et de liquide constituant l'aliment et le stockage de celui ci , et, un circuit pourvu d'une pompe pour la distribution aux auges. Such devices are known to date, these include a tank in which is provided the mixture of flour and liquid constituting the food and the storage thereof, and, a circuit provided with a pump for distribution to troughs.

Les cuves utilisées actuellement sont généralement ouvertes de sorte, qu'il n'est pas possible d'agiter efficacement le produit mélangé afin qu'il ait une concistante bien homogène, sans risquer le débordement du produit hors de la cuve . Les produits restent accrochés sur les parois, au-dessus du niveau de l'aliment liquide et, ceux-ci en fermentant deviennent toxiques et dangereux pour les animaux. Ce qui implique l'obligation d'opérer un nettoyage fastidieux priodiquement. . The tanks currently used are generally open so that it is not possible to effectively stir the mixed product so that it has a very homogeneous consistency, without risking the product overflowing out of the tank. The products remain hung on the walls, above the level of the liquid food and, these by fermenting become toxic and dangerous for animals. This implies the obligation to carry out tedious cleaning periodically. .

Un objet de l'invention consiste à rémédier à ces inconvénients avec des moyens simples, facile à à mettre en oeuvre et d'un coût réduit.. An object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks with simple means, easy to implement and at a reduced cost.

Un autre objet consiste à prévoir un moyen pour agiteren permanence et énergiquement, dans la cuve entièrement fermée le mélange afin qu'il ait une consistance bien homogène et éviter l'adhérence des aliments sur les parois internes de la cuve, au-dessus du niveau de l'aliment liquide. Another object is to provide a means to agitate permanently and vigorously, in the fully closed tank, the mixture so that it has a very homogeneous consistency and to avoid the adhesion of food on the internal walls of the tank, above the level liquid food.

Ces objectifs sont atteints en prévoyant dans la cuve un dispositif d'adaptation pour le lavage et une turbine brassant le mélange à partir du fond de la cuve. These objectives are achieved by providing in the tank an adaptation device for washing and a turbine stirring the mixture from the bottom of the tank.

Les caractéristiques de l'invention mentionnées ci-dessus ainsi que d'autres apparaitront à la lecture de la description avec les dessins joints fig. 1 et fig.2
Fig. 1 Une vue de l'intérieur de la cuve qui peut avoir différentes formes et être construite en différentes matières.The characteristics of the invention mentioned above as well as others will appear on reading the description with the accompanying drawings fig. 1 and fig. 2
Fig. 1 A view of the interior of the tank which can have different shapes and be made of different materials.

La cuve mélangeuse 1 comporte au centre de sa partie supérieure une trémie 2 de réceptiondes produits à mélanger, celle-ci traverséeparl'arbre 5 du moteur 3 comportant à sa partie supérieure une portion de vis d'archimède 6, fixée à même l'arbre 5 . Cette vis
6 est entourée d'une même portion de tube 7 , fixée à la base de la trémie réceptrice 2
Ce dispositif permet le forçage de la descente des ingrédients et évite la remontée de liquides dans la trémie 2
L'alimentation en eau est obtenue au moyen de deux conduites 10 débouchant dans le sommet de la cuve 1 , l'eau se déverse directement sur le cône inversé 9 , en rotation qui la projette violemment, contre les parois internes supérieures de la cuve 1 , ce qui permet le lavage parfait de celle-ci. Le cône 9 est muni d'ailettes de projection 8. The mixing tank 1 comprises, in the center of its upper part, a hopper 2 for receiving the products to be mixed, the latter traversed by the shaft 5 of the motor 3 comprising at its upper part a portion of archimedes screw 6, fixed to the same shaft 5. This screw
6 is surrounded by the same portion of tube 7, fixed to the base of the receiving hopper 2
This device makes it possible to force the descent of the ingredients and prevents the ascent of liquids in the hopper 2
The water supply is obtained by means of two pipes 10 opening into the top of the tank 1, the water pours directly onto the inverted cone 9, in rotation which projects it violently, against the upper internal walls of the tank 1 , which allows the perfect washing of it. The cone 9 is provided with projection fins 8.

Pendant que l'eau s'introduit dans la cuve 1 on peut opérer un nettoyage des cicuits en faisant démarrer la pompe , om obtient ainsi un circuit de nettoyage continu.While the water is entering the tank 1, the cicuits can be cleaned by starting the pump, om thus obtains a continuous cleaning circuit.

Ensuite par la trèmie réceptive 2 arrivent par pesées successives les ingrédients à mélanger. Ceux-ci descendent également directement sur le cône inversé 9 qui les disperse en pluie dans la cuve 1
Dans sa partie inférieure l'arbre 5 est solidaire d'un disque à ailettes coaxial 11 qui agite le produit pendant tout le cycle de mélange et de distribution aux auges.Then by the receptive hopper 2 arrive by successive weighings the ingredients to be mixed. These also descend directly onto the inverted cone 9 which disperses them in rain in the tank 1
In its lower part, the shaft 5 is integral with a coaxial finned disc 11 which agitates the product during the whole mixing and distribution cycle at the troughs.

La sortie 12 du mélange se fait au moyen d'une pompe pour la distribution aux auges. The outlet 12 of the mixture is done by means of a pump for the distribution to the troughs.

Envanantefigl, enremplacementde latrémiecentrale 2 la cuve 1 peutêtreéquipée d'un vis horizontale 13 avec à son extrémité extérieure la trémie réceptrice 14 La rotation de la vis 13 pousse les ingrédients vers le centre de l'ouverture 15 de descente à la cuve 1
L'entrainement de la vis 13 peut être réalisé par un moteur autonome ou être accouplé au moyen de deux engrenages d'angle 16 à l'arbre 5 du moteur vertical. Envanantefigl, replacing the central hopper 2 the tank 1 can be fitted with a horizontal screw 13 with the receiving hopper at its outer end 14 The rotation of the screw 13 pushes the ingredients towards the center of the opening 15 for descent to the tank 1
The screw 13 can be driven by an independent motor or be coupled by means of two angle gears 16 to the shaft 5 of the vertical motor.
